Iran

Britain has released evidence its sailors and marines were 1.7 nautical miles inside Iraqi waters when the IRGC naval force intercepted and captured them. Iran claimed they were 0.5 nautical miles inside Iranian waters. The price of oil has risen to $65 a barrel over the crisis and rumors of a US strike on Iran in April.
